Hewitt's History Files

MANY will still remember the Thakeham Tiles Railway, nearly three decades after it ceased to run.

It remains a fascinating little slice of West Sussex's industrial history- the last two foot narrow gauge railway to run in the county.

Worthing's Graham Lelliott, who is researching a book on the line is well placed to tell its story.

To read about the successful railway, which carried coloured sands to and fro for many years, see West Sussex Gazette January 21.
